Check out the S/G site! ?
Epic Salamander with armored crew compartment!
Neat... but why?
Tony C. & Co., must have been watching "Patton" & "Kelly's Heroes" again. What purpose will it serve? APC? Recon? Command track? Prime mover? ?
Who gets it? IG? DKoK? ?
That's what "frosts" my butt, again! The IG need another vehicle like I need another pizza! ?
While Chaos and other get nothing! More reasons to be angry with G/W - F/W - S/G!

*whistle*
Some of the Brigade stuff is really impressive. Do they sell only through mail order or are there stores that stock them (with a directory somewhere)?
I really like those Lynx and Xie Fang APCs, and most of the CDSU vehicles - if I had access to those I'd so get a bunch.
EDIT: Also Days of Empire - some of their monster tanks are really impressive, and Gladiator's MBT combat engineer vehicle looks like it could make for a nice Gorgon proxy: http://www.gladiatorgames.co.uk/engineer_vehicles.jpg

And they show pics in the new F/W NL of the new Epic Ork Bomber & Fighter! |
Thanks for the tip! Damn those look nice!!! I'm afraid they are gonna look mighty big next to those e40k fightabommerz though  ...I'll probably have to get myself a Bommer though!
Cheers!

I sort of like the armoured cab Salamander...
It looks like an Israeli AFV.
Shalom,

I am indeed. I'm going to hope some stores do stock stuff by them and that I find some of these stores. A whole collection of CDSU tanks would, IMHO, make a great set of proxies for an IG army. Look a bit more techy than normal, and less Gothic, but still big and clunky.

Well you should have some good shopping in the U.K. "H!"
And, yes Maksim, I thought the same, I've seen a version of an IDF M113 with a built up superstructure, like that, on the news recently.
Primarch, if you are ever in the U.K., smack those "goofs" at G/W-F/W-S/G, that think everything should be another version of an IG AFV that looks remarkably WWII German!!!

What we need is more Imperial vehicles! The guards are lacking in some basic areas.  I shall now stop to duck while you take a swing at the monitor...What IG whant is a jeep/HUMVEE/Landrover type vehicle, not more tanks and artillery. Much as I love them there is no need for 8+ MBT varients IMO.The IG have what they need, hurry up with the new targets oops sorry ! races.
Cheers.

Well, I have to agree the IG do not need anymore AFVs! ?
But if you're looking for light vehicles, check out the GZG or Brigade sites. Some good stuff there!

I was thinking that I may convert/paint some of the Ork buggies as light recce units.
As for Chimeras, the Trojans can be made in to good APC varients with added weapons on the roof; Gives the early ACAV feel to the vehicles.
I'll try and borrow a camera and snap a few photos.
Cheers.
